I recently saw this update from MKBHD about what he and others think about the phone.

Majority of them felt that, strangely, the best part of the phone was the external screen used about 90% of the time, and the internal screen used 10% of the time, though they still loved the internal screen when apps supported it.

I'm wondering how other Pixel Fold owners feel, now that they've had the phone for some time?

Not a pixel fold user, but I do have a zfold 4 and just wanted to say I personally love the outer display and use it about 85% of the time. I'd really love to hear from others that said it was unusable, why they think that? I have huge hands and previously owned many big phones but I absolutely love the candy bar form factor of the outer display. For me the inner display is useful for content but not nearly as useful for a text, a scroll fest, or most of my usual smartphone tasks. It'll take a lot to get me to go back to a non folding device....maybe a good Linux phone would.
